Hi, fellow humans on their true life journey!,
I had always been depressed for my own, let's call it programming because it basically is, from my parents and certain situations I found myself in throughout my life.
During the pandemic, I had a spiritual awakening and started seeing myself for who I really was, all my faults and shadows, as well as how the world we live in works. Ever since, I've been working on myself, healing my traumas, making meditation a daily practice (IT'S GREAT), exercising,... my mindset and my beliefs have changed so much I sometimes can't believe how far I've come and how hard it's been, though I know there is still much work left to do.
This year I'm going into my second year in university studying biomedical sciences. It is not something I want to do in the future, and I don't know what can I do with it to stand out. Anyways, beacuse I felt I didn't wanna be stuck like the rest of us, especially because I knew it's not something I incredibly enjoy, I started researching about money and came across the stock market. I started researching about the stock market, as I had heard that's what the rich do to get rich–I thought buying stocks was their financial plan and not part of their financial plan.
So while I was researching how to invest in stocks, I started realising something was wrong. It just didn't resonate with me. Living frugal and saving your money, hoping the stock market would be good for me to take out my money 40 years later (and not even that much money), and also gambling on my health. How could I be so sure I'd be alive until then? And if I was, I would've thrown away my youth and not enjoyed it just to "live" when I'm old. It just didn't make sense to me. I didn't even have enough money to start investing in the first place.
So this is when it hit me, this wasn't a good plan and I was feeling rather stuck. That is, until I suddenly decided to read the Millionaire Fastlane by MJ which was recommended in one of the videos about investing that I watched.
Like a miracle, my answer came to me. I read the book and my perspective once again was widened. Now I know what it takes to be truly rich (that is wealth-wise). In my trinity, my relationship vertice isn't very strong.
Now, I've decided I'm going to learn coding and Web designing, as I have an idea to create an app/website. I think it is a good idea as there's high demand for the topic. Speaking of which, does anyone know a decent platform or whatever to learn coding?
My other defining decision would be... quitting uni. I'm wondering if I should dropout? Or keep going until I'm better with coding and have something to show for my idea/s. Or maybe wait and try to figure out how to leverage my degree... Should I get a job and invest what I earn in myself and in what I want to create? My advantage is I live with my parents and they support me with living costs, though I don't wanna keep doing that as they are tired and want to stop working soon.
I feel like I have too many options and I've got to focus on one only, but it's hard to decide now as I know virtually nothing about how to create a business.
Thank you if you read this far! Any advice you have for me is truly appreciated.
